The University serves Virginia, the nation, and the world by preparing responsible citizen-leaders; advancing, preserving, and disseminating knowledge; and providing world-class patient care.
All gifts of any kind help secure the University’s place as a premier institution of learning and make it possible for our students, faculty, and researchers to shape a brighter future.
You can give to all 12 schools across Grounds. The possibilities are endless for supporting our students, faculty, and programs. Together, we will find the way forward.
You can join the growing number of alumni and friends who invest now in the University’s future by including UVA as a beneficiary of their wills, charitable trusts, and retirement plans. Gifts like these can offer you and your family significant tax benefits as well as greater financial flexibility in meeting your personal and philanthropic goals.
The Honor the Future campaign, the largest in University history, concluded in 2025, thanks to thousands of loyal supporters. Its impact on students, faculty, facilities, and research reaches across Charlottesville, Wise County, and Northern Virginia as it continues to advance the school in its third century of service to the commonwealth, nation, and world.
Grateful for sunshine and for the alumni, parents, and friends who support the University of Virginia, hundreds of students lined up on the Lawn on GivingToHoosDay, April 10, to say thank you. The annual event raised $4.45 million in a 24-hour period from 7,247 donors.
In coordination with GivingToHoosDay, UVA offered students the opportunity to write thank-you notes to those who’ve generously given to the University’s schools, units, and other programs.
In between bites of warm donuts, and after partaking in a “candy buffet,” the students penned more than a thousand heartfelt cards that let donors know just how much they appreciate support for their University.
Elsewhere on Grounds, at the event’s headquarters in Fontaine Research Park, the GivingToHoosDay leadership team kept an eye on the steady stream of gifts made online, wondering where the next would come from. Would this year see a gift from Malta? What about Peru? With a crew of approximately ten, the group coordinated with other schools and units and trafficked information as needed to ensure smooth operations.
Patrick Stanley, director for digital engagement and GivingToHoosDay coordinator, was delighted with the day’s overall success.
“I’m tremendously proud to have again taken an active role in shaping and bringing to life this important annual event. Watching our community mobilize around GivingToHoosDay was truly inspiring, and it serves to remind us all why the UVA community—when fully deployed—is such a positive force in society.”
